More about IsleWilde:
Celebrating its 22nd season, IsleWilde is an ever-changing community of friends and families. We are right here from Vashon, and over the years many ARTISTS have travelled here to share in our unique arts community : British Columbia, Puerto Rico, Minnesota, Ohio, Quebec, New York, Spain, Taiwan, Hope, and Indonesia.

We come together in the spirit of creativity and write shows, make puppets, masks, villages, music, dinner, you name it. There will be experienced creation professionals on hand to help you unearth/unleash your creative potential. If you want to teach a specific workshop/skill we would love that.

IsleWilde is a “Free for all” festival. No money is required for any of our workshops or performances, and the DIY spirit rules. Show up any time and create. We will have some art supplies on hand, but if you have some to contribute, please bring them.
